Maybe someone could check how most commonly used clients behave with NO vs. BYE? Those are really the only options for most legacy mail stores which don't support delayed expunging.
BYE is simple. All the clients that work well with UW-imapd handle it. A client doesn't know whether the BYE happened because another client sent SELECT or because another client sent EXPUNGE and other conditions apply.
NO needs testing. But I'm lazy and won't do it.
